New York at Boston

New York is favored again, but it has lost eight of 10 and plays its ninth consecutive road game here. Starter Jameson Taillon is much more comfortable at Yankee Stadium with a 4.39 ERA on the road this season. He hasn't been sharp since the end of June, allowing 31 runs in 48 innings in his last nine starts. He also hasn't been comfortable against the Red Sox with a 5.73 ERA in two starts covering 11 innings. That includes an 11-6 loss at Fenway Park. Boston is 11th in the league in runs scored and slugging. The Red Sox play their sixth straight home game today, and they are delighted to get Michael Wacha (2.69 ERA) back from an injury with a sparkling 1.39 ERA in 32+ innings at home. The wagering value is on the home team to win the game or lose by one run. Play Boston on the runline.
